Amount of water collected
• When you first use your dehumidifier it will work harder to reduce the room humidity down to 50%rh
(in “Normal” mode). This is the time when it will produce the most water and need emptying most
frequently. As the room becomes dryer the dehumidifier collects less water and takes longer to fill the
tank, this is perfectly normal. When the target relative humidity has been reached the dehumidifier will
stop collecting water, again this is normal.
• If you find that you still have condensation on your windows or you need to dry the air further then
us the “Maximum” mode. This might well be necessary if you have single glazed windows or if the
outside air
temperature drops towards freezing.
• In the three modes that are controlled by the relative humidity stat (Maximum/Normal/Minimum)
when the target relative humidity has been reached the dehumidifier will stop drying the air and will then
run the fan for 10 minutes to make sure that the relative humidity is stable. When this happens no
more water will be collected, this is perfectly normal. The fan then goes to sleep for 30 minutes after
which it will wake up and sample the air so that the dehumidifier knows when to start collecting water
again, but if the relative humidity remains below the target then the fan will go to sleep again for another
30 minutes. When the relative humidity rises again the dehumidifier will automatically start to collect
water again.
• Although the Laundry mode aims for a lower relative humidity it will reach a point after which
there will be no more water to collect because it will not over dry the air below a point at which the air
will become uncomfortable.
Turning off
When you press the Power button to turn your dehumidifier off the fan will run for another ten
minutes before it shuts down. This is normal and part of an essential process to cool the inside
of the dehumidifier down. Please do not try to interrupt the cooling down process by
unplugging the dehumidifier from the wall socket, the machine will turn off once the ten minutes
as past.
To operate safely
• Do not insert small objects into the unit or this will damage it and cause a hazard.
• Do not remove the tank when the dehumidifier is running or water may leak.
• Minimum operating condition 1°C at 40%rh relative humidity.
